Thousand Oaks Telemedicine For Sleep Disorders: Remote Treatment Announced

Southern California Pulmonary and Sleep Disorders Medical Center (+1-805-557-9930) of Thousand Oaks announced new telemedicine services for the diagnosis and treatment of sleep apnea and other sleep disorders.

The recently launched AASM SleepTM service enables patients to receive digitally enabled care for sleep apnea from the comfort of their own homes. The new service eliminates inconvenient scheduling, waiting rooms, time away from work, and travel costs. In addition, it increases accessibility, especially for people in remote locations or with mobility issues.

Following the SCPSDMC’s recent announcement, patients can attend virtual appointments through a secure web portal via their PC, laptop, or mobile device. As the clinic notes, this remote contact allows broader access to leading sleep specialists ‘based on their merit rather than their location.’

Alongside its other advantages, ERR research has shown that telemedicine (TM) helps to improve adherence to sleep disorder treatment plans by providing patients with more frequent check-ups and monitoring.

With the SCPSDMC’s service, patients can track and monitor their sleep habits through AASM SleepTM’s integrated sleep diaries - valuable tools for identifying patterns and factors affecting quality of rest, and the most effective treatment options. Patients can also fill out sleep questionnaires and enter their sleep time data, or sleep stage, snoring, respiratory rate, and other reports from a wearable Fitbit device.

To sign up for TM for sleep apnea, patients can request an appointment and create an account. AASM SleepTM is HIPPA-compliant and utilizes data encryption with other security features to keep personal information private, safe, and secure.

The center’s other services for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) include Inspire Therapy implants, and Bongo RX Therapy - a nasal dilator and EPAP device designed to keep the airways open. These options are particularly suitable for people who are intolerant to traditional CPAP machines.

The SCPSDMC was founded by Dr. Ronald A. Popper, an ABSM and ABIM-certified sleep medicine specialist. The center provides treatment for a wide range of conditions including snoring, RLS, narcolepsy, hypersomnia, and fatigue. It serves patients throughout Los Angeles, Malibu, Westlake Village, Camarillo, and the rest of Southern California.

A satisfied patient said: “I found Dr. Popper to be knowledgeable, proactive, and effective in helping me correct problems I’ve been having with my sleep and as a result, my health, and life in general. Going to the center is the single best thing I’ve done in years.”
